Turn 6
The large beacon draws ever nearer. You think you could jump to it if you were to make your move now!

You expend an essence of fire in an attempt to create a ball of flames. The fire lasts for maybe about a minute before it fizzles out from a lack of fuel. If this had a desirable effect, it is not obvious.
You spend some time in meditation...

You head in the direction of the large beacon as you use Negentrophic Conversion to make a better outfit. The outfit itself turns out pretty well with a few minor issues. Your new silk garment turned out to be mostly white and brown in color, with a yellow trim. It seems that the essence had a bias towards such colors for some reason. The outfit is also a singular piece with no buttons or similar clasps.
In your travels you find yourself on an island with patches of grass. You see what appears to be six anthropomorphic rat people on this island. They are currently fighting over some cabbages.

Moving the beacon around with you proves to be no challenge, and the beacon appears to be completely weightless. It occurs to you that as long as you are near a beacon, stealth will probably be out of the question.
Regardless, you move to another island. This one is a bit smaller than the one you were just on. You notice that there are some crystalline outcroppings coming from the island.
You notice that the two other small beacons are now within just a few meters of eachother...
Octavian Grey
You leave the various objects in the ruined house alone, and the objects seem content to leave you alone as well...
After some time, someone barges into the house, along with a beacon! It appears to be a woman brandishing a knife. She does not look particularly well.
You have gained an Essence of Lightning
You have gained an Essence of Brick
You have gained an Essence of Pipe

You attempt to reabsorb the gear, but you find that the gear does not change back. It seems that you would need Entrophic power to break it back down: the very antithesis of the Negentrophic power that you actually wield.
You jump to a nearby island. This one is similar to the one you were previously on, but it has a covering of dirt on it. There is a patch of tall blue flowers, and a flying insect about two feet long with a bright blue abdomen is hovering around the flowers. It pays you no heed. You notice that the island with the large beacon may be just a single jump away...

You talk to the girl. As you do, you notice the beacons shifting. The large one draws closer, and the two small ones approach eachother.

With some time and effort, you manage to convert some of your lost skin cells into grass seeds, though the growing conditions here are nowhere near ideal for it. It seems that this grass does not directly have any negentrophic potential in spite of having come from you.
After a few tests, it seems that genetics has absolutely nothing to do with negentropic power. While you somehow know about how negentrophy works, you are not certain why this didn't work.
You did however, figure out a means to adapt your body. While you don't know how to increase the amount of essence you can obtain, you do know that 'meditation' is the means by which you can collect it. Rather than directly increasing the effectiveness of this, you could instead set things up so that less tasks require you to halt your meditation. One such method would be to create a secondary brain which you can delegate tasks to.
Even with your psionic abilities and skill in genetic manipulation, messing around with your own brain is not something to be taken lightly. Any number of problems could arise if you choose to pursue this path. It is also worth noting that an quality brain will consume a lot of energy.

You gaze into the reflective floor of the mirror island. Despite the fact that the surface of the island is far from smooth, your image is reflected perfectly upon it. In response to your 'question', you get a response!
Your reflection asks you. "Don't you think its time to stop?".
Ailn
You barge into the house with your knife at the ready. Within is a dirty couch as well as some other furniture. There is also a picture on a frame depicting a mundane terrestrial landscape, and a few broken technological devices. In the corner underneath a small end table are a few metal canisters filled with liquid. The word 'Whoopass' is written on the cans in big bubbly text.
Inside the house is a tall man with tanned skin. He is bearing an unlit torch, which holds the beacon that you were initially drawn to!
Scarlet
You use one Fire essence and one Egg essence in an attempt to create a phoenix egg. Disturbingly, it seems like it might have actually worked! Before you lies an egg, about a foot tall. It is orange in color, and is very warm to the touch. It is unclear if it has any medicial properties however.
